Title:
SURFACE HEATING SYSTEM FOR TUBING OR PIPING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/124244
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A system and method allowing for the transfer of heat from a heating element in a tube heating system to production tubing in downhole pipes. The heating tube is comprised of double walled and double threaded pipe. The transferred heat warms the material being extracted from a subterranean formation and collected at the surface. Warming the material prevents the build-up of paraffins, asphaltenes, or other materials that may potentially clog production pipe in downhole applications.
